So I had this tomato plant that was just going nuts growing all over the ground so yesterday morning I went out to stake it and tie it up. While doing that it lost allot of green tomatoes, I hated the ideal of just toss them so I put um a huge bowl and washed them up. Then I goggled things to make with green tomatoes. So today I made Green Tomato Raspberry Jam. I wasn't so sure about this when i got the ideal to try it, OK that said ... on several websites it said you could mince the green tomatoes up or put them in the food processor. I don't have a food processor so I minced them up. Started that out and well it was not looking promising so I got out my blender and used the puree setting and started a second batch. First batch turned into candied green tomatoes second batch turned out amazing!! Well it hasn't cooled yet but warm it is so good! I could see myself making allot of this and trying different flavor's!
2 cups green tomatoes
2 cups white sugar
1 package raspberry gelatin (3oz)
Combine tomatoes and sugar in a large saucepan and bring
to a boil over medium heat.
Stir and cook 20 minutes. Add the gelatin, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
Spoon into jars or, pour into freezer containers
and refrigerate or freeze.
First batch- Didn't break down stayed chunky
Personal note:
Just tried to sneak Charlie some of the new jam he didn't fall for it ... he like's these mini pancakes with blackberry jam. I made him six and then I stacked um well he must of been on to me because he opened each stack before he ate them. He looked at me and said "Your not gonna get me with that one" and "I'm not gonna fall for that trick"
